The New Cold War: The United States, Russia, and China from Kosovo to Ukraine Achcar Gilbert
A leading international relations expert uncovers the key stages that led from the end of the Cold War to the War in Ukraine.In the wake of the 1999 Kosovo War, Gilbert Achcar argued that the world had entered a New Cold War, characterized by a state of permanent readiness for war on the part of the United States, Russia, and China. In the years since, the U.S. Achcar's analysis proved remarkably prescient.
As Achcar details in The New Cold War, the rivalries of the Cold War didn't disappear with the collapse of the Soviet Union; they simply has positioned itself as a global hegemon, broadening its reach through NATO expansion; China has become an economic powerhouse allied with Russia; and Russia has launched pre-emptive wars to block NATO, culminating in Vladimir Putin's murderous invasion of Ukraine in 2022.How did we get here?
